Hi Guys,

I have An Investment Approach I which I would like to all.

Hi guys,

There is a very high percentage chance that the ECRL will be restored this April 2019 when Tun Dr Mahathir visits China

And in view of the Important construction of a 600 Kilometer Infrar project stretching from Port Klang in Selangor on the West Coast of Malaysia to Tumpat in Kelantan at the Upper most state of Kelantan on the East Coast... All for the ONE BELT ONE ROAD initiative of China

 

Calvin has picked these Cream of the Best Stocks in their field

  1. PRESTAR (9873) For Guard Rail
  2.  MASTEEL (5098) for Long Steel
  3.  LAFARGE (3794) for Cement

And these are the reasons why I chose these for Construction Materials. No matter who are chosen to do the contract jobs these 3 are Top companies to buy Guardrail, Long Steel Bars & Cement

 

1 PRESTAR

Prestar is selling guardrails and sturdy wheel barrows

At 600 Kilometer long there will lots of guardrails needed

As of now one guardrail about 10 feet to 12 feet long is priced at Rm217 per piece.

About 4 meter a piece

600,000/4 x Rm217 = Rm31, 950,000. And for 2 sides = Rm63.9 Millions

Right Now another longer highway is under construction

THE PAN BORNEO HIGHWAY

Notice the shining guardrail? They are alloys of steel & nickel

Pan-Borneo Highway

The length of the entire highway is expected to be about 2,083 kilometres (1,294 mi) for the Malaysian section, 168 kilometres (104 mi) for the Bruneian section and 3,073 kilometres (1,909 mi) for the Indonesian section.[2] The Indonesian sections of the Pan Borneo Highway is known as the Trans-Kalimantan Highway.

Pan Borneo Highway is 2,083 Kilometer (More than 3 Times ECRL)

No wonder Prestar Insiders are buying & buying

 

 

 

2 MASTEEL - THE MASTER OF LONG STEEL

Long steel is needed to build Bridges & retaining walls all along the highways

Since Masteel is a pure Long Steel Players it will benefit Most from Highways, MRT, LRT & in 2 more years the High Speed Rail

So ECRL will spur lots of demand

Since the ECRL ends near Kapar, Port Klang MASTEEL Has A Strategic Advantage over others like LionInd, SSteel & Annjoo

 

Company Profile

Malaysia Steel Works (KL) Bhd factories are located strategically at Petaling Jaya and Bukit Raja, Klang in the state of Selangor Darul Ehsan, Malaysia.

The Bukit Raja factory produces steel bars and steel billets which are the feed stock for its rolling mills in Petaling Jaya and Bukit Raja. Both the manufacturing plants are equipped with modern equipment and are fully computerised to produce precision quality products from both the mills.

The principal activities of Masteel is in the manufacturing and marketing of high tensile steel bars, mild steel bars and prime steel billets. Masteel has a wide network of customers domestically as well as internationally.

The finished products manufactured by Masteel conforms to those required by SIRIM (MS 146:2014), ACRS (Australia) as well as the ISO 9001 standards.

BEING NEAR IS IMPORTANT FOR COST & TIME SAVING

Now don't be silly and go buy flat steel or Pm Metal which is doing aluminium

MASTEEL - THE TOP PICK FOR ECRL STEEL

INSIDERS ALSO BOUGHT MASTEEL  SHARES & AT VERY HIGH PRICES STILL HOLDING

 

AND EVEN AFTER BONUS ISSUES THEIR COST OF PURCHASE STILL QUITE HIGH

 

3 LAFARGE CEMENT

When PM Badawi implemented 9 MP I bought Lafarge at 66 sen & Tasek at Rm2.90

Then I think there was a capital exercise where Lafarge went from 10 to 3 share consolidation. So lafarge at year 2006 price of 66 sen is actually now around Rm2.00

Lafarge gone up over Rm10.00 in its cyclical up. Now fallen due to cancellation of so many projects

BUT THIS SINGLE CONTRACT REVIVAL of 600 Kilometer Rail Link Road will spur demand for Lafarge Cement

Like Prestar -- Lafarge also got a Cement Manufacting Plant in Rawang (only 6 km to Serendah) to which ECRL will pass

SO LAFARGE HAS THE BEST LOCATION FOR CEMENTImage result for lafarge cement mixer truck photo

 

 

THE IMPORTANCE OF A CEMENT PLANT (LOCATION) FOR INFRASTRUCTURE WORKS

You heard of steel dumping from China. But  don't hear about Cement dumping from China? Why?

The answer is - Cement cannot last long - only 2 months or 3 months before hardening. If Cement is exposed to water or sea water it will quickly harden & be of no use.

So Cement is a fragile commodity. Especially for the Cement Aggregate carried by CEMENT MIXER TRUCK

Once the fresh batch of cement leaves a Cement Plant - IT MUST REACH ITS DESTINATION WITHIN ONE SHORT HOUR

AND UNLOAD ITS CONTENT

OR ELSE DUE TO QUALITY CONTROL IT WILL BE REJECTED

LAFARGE BY VIRTUE OF ITS CEMENT PLANT LOCATION IN RAWANG IS ONLY 6 KM FROM SERENDAH - TO WHICH THE ECRL WILL PASS

Tasek Cement, unfortunately, has its cement plant in  Perak. So it is less ideal.

And all along the length of the highways at certain spots they will build Cement Batching Plants

 

No wonder it went limit up yesterday. And will go up some more when ECRL is signed

Lafarge share holders are also starting to buy

VERY GOOD NEWS 

KUALA LUMPUR: Petroliam Nasional Bhd (Petronas) will pay RM54 billion in dividend to the government this year, including a special dividend of RM30 billion. 

Petronas president and group chief executive officer Tan Sri Wan Zulkiflee Wan Ariffin said the group, which announced a revenue jump of 12 per cent to RM251.0 billion, had been paying the dividend in tranches since January. 

“The group will be paying RM54 billion dividend in total (for 2019) comprising RM30 billion in special dividend and RM24 billion in normal dividend. 

“We were confident of delivering this dividend before we declared this number,” he said at a media briefing on Petronas’ 2018 financial results here today. 

In November last year, Petronas announced that it would be paying an additional RM30 billion in a special dividend in the 2019 Budget to help the government settle refunds of RM37 billion in goods and services tax and income tax. 

Petronas, in a statement, said the special dividend payment would not impede its operations. 

Earlier, Finance Minister Lim Guan Eng said the government expected to receive RM261.8 billion in revenue next year, including a one-off special dividend of RM30 billion from Petronas. 

The special dividend, he said, would be used towards repaying the GST and income tax refunds of RM37 billion. 

Petronas announced a 12 per cent increase in revenue to RM251.0 billion from RM223.6 billion recorded in 2017, driven by higher average realised prices for all key products. 

Petronas’ net profit rose 22 per cent to RM55.3 billion from RM45.5 billion in 2017, on the back of higher revenue and supported by net write-back of impairment of assets.

1) Good News No. 1 

PETRONAS HAS INCREASED REVENUE TO HELP MALAYSIAN GOVT 

That is why 5 OGSE are selling higher revenue due to increased activity 

Both Penergy & Dayang have surging revenue & profits 



2) Good News No. 2 

With Increased Revenues PH Govt is ready to RESTART ECRL which is very good for T7 Global & Azrb 


3) Good news No. 3 

(((help the government settle refunds of RM37 billion in goods and services tax and income tax.))) 

These will result in Payment to companies which Govt owed goods & services tax refund of Rm37 billions which inject liquidity to companies hard pressed in their cash flow.

ECRL revival a boon for Lafarge — Affin Hwang
Author: savemalaysia | Publish date: Fri, 8 Mar 2019, 12:23 PM

KUALA LUMPUR (March 8): Lafarge Malaysia Bhd is seen as a beneficiary of the East Coast Rail Link's (ECRL) potential revival because the cement manufacturer had earlier won contracts under the project, Affin Hwang Investment Bank Bhd said today.

Lafarge, which saw its shares surge as much as 30% yesterday to hit limit up, said it had no idea what might have caused the sudden price jump.

It said this in a filing in response to Bursa Malaysia’s unusual market activity query yesterday, after Lafarge’s shares climbed as much as 60 sen to RM2.60.

Affin Hwang analyst Loong Chee Wei wrote in a note today the ECRL project may be revived but at a lower cost than the initial value of RM55 billion.

"We understand that the government will likely decide after Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad's visit to China in April. If the project is revived, HSS Engineers Bhd and Lafarge Malaysia, which had won contracts, will see earnings contributions as the works resume. Local contractors will also benefit if the requirement for higher local participation is increased from the initial 30% of works to be awarded by the main contractor, China Communications Construction Co Ltd.

"Contractors that were vying for ECRL subcontract works include IJM Corp Bhd and Gabungan AQRS Bhd given their established presence in the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia," Loong said.

Work on the ECRL has been suspended since July 2018. Reuters reported then that the China Communications Construction confirmed that it suspended all work on the project as Putrajaya sought to renegotiate the terms of the deal with China.

It was reported that China Communications Construction said on July 5, 2018 it halted all work at the request of project owner Malaysia Rail Link Sdn Bhd.

"Recently, the company has received a letter from Malaysia Rail Link Sdn Bhd, the employer, which requires an immediate suspension of the contract under the ECRL project until further instructions," China Communications Construction was quoted as saying in a filing with the Hong Kong bourse.

NOTE THESE WORDS


""Lafarge Malaysia Bhd is seen as a beneficiary of the East Coast Rail Link's (ECRL) potential revival because the cement manufacturer had earlier won contracts under the project, Affin Hwang Investment Bank Bhd said today.""


LAFARGE ALREADY SUPLLIED CEMENT FOR PARTIAL COMPLETION OF ECRL BEFORE IT WAS SUSPENDED

SO IF ECRL IS RESTORED - ITS CEMENT SUPPLY BUSINESS WILL ALSO CONTINUE

"AND ITS MAKE A WHOLE LOT OF DIFFERENCE TO LAFARGE VERY STRONG EARNING GROWTH AGAIN"


IF DAYANG IS POWERED BY EARNING GROWTH FROM PETRONAS

LAFARGE CAN ALSO BE POWERED BY ECRL BACK TO ITS GLORY DAYS OF RM10.00??

Maybe not

JUST RM5.00 SHOULD SEE ITS PRICE DOUBLE

Calvin, china will use their own steel and cement for all the one belt one road job. One belt one road main objective is to dump all the excessive steel and cement to developing countries, with cheaper price and conditional loan terms. 2 benefit to china: dump their cheap material and cheap credit. When the rail cannot make any profit to overcome the loan, china will take over for 99 years. Look at sri lanka, myanmar

For ECRL China bought CEMENT From LAFARGE

See from LAFARGE Annual Report

We have recently secured the supply to packages for both the 24.4km
SUKE and 20.1km DASH three-lane, dual-carriageway, elevated
expressways, and most recently the East Coast Rail Link (ECRL) project.

For Steel Malaysia no impose higher tariff for Steel Dumping from China

Masteel mentioned the importance of ECRL

Prestar's Chairman even look forward to Malaysian Govt raising tariff against China Cold Roil Steel dumping. And Good News just came out for Prestar https://www.nst.com.my/business/2019/03/467316/malaysia-slaps-anti-dum...

Good morning cheoky

It doesn't matter who win ECRL jobs

All need to buy and use construction materials

AND for all practical reasons they need to buy from the most efficient, the best and the lowest cost

Masteel, by virtue of using scrap steel and its strategic location in Selangor near Ecrl is prime

Both Prestar and Lafarge have production plants in Rawang... Just nearby the ECRL route

AND after the ECRL is ready these 3 companies can export their products on the West through Port Klang and also send goods by way of ECRL through Kuantan Port to East Malaysia, Kalimantan and the Philippines

AND further up north through Tok Bali port to export guardrails, steel and even cement to Thailand, Taiwan, Korea, Japan and China
